Rock star vibes: Sky home is ‘bold, luxurious, and unapologetically different'

Courier-Mail10-06-2025
A glamorous sky home complete with a cinema, sauna, marble-encased bath and hidden lingerie closet has hit the market with a $2.6m plus price tag.
The party pad on the Gold Coast is described by Smith & Co director Shannon Smith as having rock star edge with its bold industrial styling.
'This isn't your typical white-on-white coastal apartment,' said Mr Smith.
'It's been designed for someone who wants to make a statement — it's bold, luxurious, and unapologetically different.'
The boutique Broadwater sub-penthouse at 6/446 Marine Pde, Biggera Waters takes up the entire sixth floor of the boutique LUXE on Marine building.
The three-bedroom 241 sqm residence has undergone a 12-month renovation to set it apart from the typical coastal home.

With a private lift entry, sweeping Broadwater views, and interiors that fuse polished concrete, black steel and warm textures, the his home is anything but ordinary.
'This home will suit a discerning buyer — an executive couple, someone relocating from Sydney or Melbourne, or a local downsizer who still wants wow-factor and space,' Mr Smith said.
'It's luxurious, low-maintenance, and unlike anything else on the market.'
The main bedroom includes a lavish primary suite with marble-encased bath, walk-in robe and hidden lingerie closet.
'(The lingerie closet) is a mirror in the bedroom which is a push to open, and has a cupboard behind it,' he said.
'Inside it looks like a rack from Honey Birdette with beautiful hangers and every piece hanging up.
'It does seem odd to hear, but when you see it – it just makes sense.
'It would be a great hidden shoe/sneaker cupboard as well – whatever you treasure.
'The hidden aspect adds to the fun and glamour of the home.'
The kitchen has premium Gaggenau appliances and a butler's pantry while the cinema has velvet-draped walls and tiered seating.
There is also a 32sq m northeast-facing balcony that offers uninterrupted Broadwater views.
Property records reveal the apartment last changed hands for $1.38m in 2012 while it was listed for rent in 2018 at $1050 per week.
PropTrack data shows the median unit price in Biggera Waters is $700,000, up 10.9 per cent over 12 months.

‘Like a superpower': Nikita Tszyu reveals wild pre-fight diet consisting of placenta and breast milk

Nikita Tszyu's new pre-fight diet has raised more than a few eyebrows after the Aussie star revealed it includes capsulised placenta and breast milk. Tszyu and his wife, Nikita Bedwell, who married in secret in January, welcomed their first child together in June - named Curiosity after a NASA Mars rover. While the name is unique, so is the way Tszyu is preparing for his fight against Lulzim Ismaili on August 20. Tszyu told Triple M Breakfast on Wednesday that turning to capsulated placenta and breast milk has given him 'a crazy amount of energy' and joked he's 'technically become a cannibal.' 'So, for those who don't know, I just had a baby. And my wife … we freeze-dried her placenta and I've been supplementing on her placenta recently … in tablet form,' Tszyu said. 'I've technically become a cannibal. It's actually like a superpower.' Triple M's Aaron Woods chimed in: 'They reckon breast milk is the best thing you can have! It's so clean.' Tszyu replied: 'Yeah, and it's delicious as well!' Drinking breast milk rose in popularity on the back of weightlifters who claimed they gained extra muscle when switching from full cream to natural breast milk. However, no substantial research into the claim has ever been done. That's because, scientifically, it doesn't make sense. The idea of building muscle largely comes down to protein intake and targeted exercise. And if that is the marker, consuming breast milk instead of cow's milk makes zero sense. For example, 100g of breast milk contains around 1g of protein, compared to 3.1g of protein in full cream milk. The only areas where it is significantly higher are in sugars and fat. As for the placenta claim, Tszyu is just the latest to try a practice that is becoming increasingly common. Stars such as Hilary Duff and Kourtney Kardashian have consumed their placenta – either in liquid or capsule form – after having children. The placenta is a temporary organ, and its sole purpose is to provide the baby with nutrients during pregnancy. And in recent years, placenta tablets – which are pills created by drying and grinding up the placenta into a powder, then encapsulating it – have boomed in popularity. Research is, however, limited on its effectiveness, but the BBC reported in 2015 that there are no proven benefits to consuming it and if anything, it could be harmful. But for Tszyu, he says he feels the difference. 'I've done tests with my sparring – days where I've had it and days where I haven't – and it feels like I got all this crazy amount of energy,' he told Triple M. The science on its benefits is still unclear, but regardless, it's safe to say Tszyu isn't leaving any stone unturned as he looks to improve his record to 13-0 when he takes on Lulzim Ismaili on August 20.

Notoriously private Perth star shares rare baby pic

Tame Impala's Kevin Parker has offered fans a first glimpse of his newborn baby, with the Perth-raised music star and wife Sophie celebrating the recent arrival of their second child. The couple have not publicly revealed the child's name or gender. Marrying in 2019, Parker and Sophie welcomed their daughter Peach in 2021. Their wholesome news coincides with somewhat of a re-birth for Parker as an artist, with the Let It Happen hitmaker building up to the release of his fifth studio album under the Tame Impala moniker following his 2020 project The Slow Rush. In mid-July, the 39-year-old told fans he'd 'been busy' as he unveiled a heavily pregnant Sophie, alongside snapshots from his recent movements both in Europe and WA.

Parker's newborn could be seen sleeping peacefully on his chest as he lay on the couch. Other images depicted the producer attending a Fremantle Dockers game, spinning the decks alongside Aussie producer Kito, and hijinks from his End of Summer music video shoot in Barcelona. The long-awaited July release could not have come soon enough for fans who had been patiently awaiting new Tame Impala music. Parker has written and produced alongside several mega stars, including Lady Gaga, Dua Lipa, Kanye West, and has been covered by Rihanna.

With deep roots in Perth, the singer-songwriter was a special guest at the June birthday bash of Fremantle Dockers captain Alex Pearce, held at Patio Bar. As the club's number one ticket holder, he is regularly spotted in the Freo rooms, and even produced a hype track for the club that is often played throughout Optus Stadium on game day.

However, some fans were less sentimental, and instead encouraged Parker to prioritise his musical endeavours. 'I will rearrange my entire schedule for tour dates,' one fan said. Another added, 'Just drop the album bro'. Parker released hugely popular album Currents in 2015, with his earlier Tame Impala projects Lonerism and Innerspeaker coming in 2012 and 2010 respectively. With more than 30 million monthly listeners on Spotify, his festival favourite The Less I Know The Better has racked up an impressive two billion streams on the platform.

Abbie Chatfield has last laugh after Brit's parking fumble

A British woman has been served a dose of karma after committing a parking faux pas on an Australian media star's property. Media sensation Abbie Chatfield took to social media on Sunday to recount the 'crazy interaction' she had on her Bondi driveway to her 667,000 followers. The star had left to take her dog for a walk when she noticed a woman in a Mazda had parked an inch away from her car, with the Mazda's backend 'halfway over the driveway'. 'Literally, you could not get a car out at all,' the It's A Lot podcast host told her followers. Chatfield said she felt compelled to approach the woman about the parking job as she had previously heard 'people from England park recklessly'. 'She's not from here, I thought she was confused,' she explained as the motivation behind letting the woman know the move was illegal. Instead of acknowledging the parking blunder and moving her vehicle, Chatfield said the British woman instead became increasingly angry in response. 'She was yelling 'I didn't ask you'…. I told her I didn't want to fight (her). 'I said, 'Babes, people live in this apartment building, they have 4WDs and utes'.' She told the woman it was a 'nightmare' to get out of the driveway, which was reportedly met with laughter and refusal to move — a reaction the Bachelor alumnus took a moment to directly address. 'Why are you laughing that you're committing a crime? Why are you laughing that you're being incredibly disrespectful, blocking someone's driveway, and yelling at a stranger? 'You obviously have no respect for our garden and no respect for our footpath.' Chatfield got the last laugh, however — taking to social media with a follow-up video later that day showing the Mazda's driver received their karma in the form of a $330 fine. 'Well, well, well…. I tried to warn her,' the star joked while showing the ranger ticket underneath the car's wiper. The comments were just as happy as Chatfield to see the woman had gotten fined for the act. 'Karmas so swift sometimes!' one follower wrote. 'This is so incredibly cathartic,' another agreed. Another commenter chimed in: 'Oof $330 is a big fine too, she's going to regret that!' Even Aussie comedian Matt Hey jumped in, saying the payback 'was everything'. Blocking a driveway is illegal in all Australian states. If a parked vehicle obstructs access to a driveway, fines between $100 and $590 apply depending on local council policies. PerthNow reached out to Abbie Chatfield's representatives, however, did not receive a response.
